Chapter 407 Suddenly I think this is life
The flames in the stove became more and more prosperous. The people who came in didn't say hello to Shi Chuan, just looked around. Shi Chuan ignored them. He lowered his head and placed the barbecue plate on the stove. Then he carried a small pot of water to the stove and placed the wine bottle in the pot to burn the wine. Suddenly, a faint fragrance of wine floated from the entire tent.
Yang Weizhong, the leader of the Dangxiang, sniffed, squeezed his eyes, and hit Xin Xingzong in front with his shoulders. Xin Xingzong turned around and squeezed at Yang Weizhong... Opposite, Shi Chuan steadily picked up the brush, carefully brushed a layer of oil on the barbecue board, and nodded at the two generals leisurely, as if he had greeted him.
Xin Xingzong looked up and saw under the fire, he saw charcoal black marks smoked from Shi Zhi's face, which seemed a little funny... Considering that he was just a new arrival, Xin Xingzong nodded to the chef kindly and asked: "Guan Jun, your fragrance makes people itchy. When the meat is ready, I will give us a few pieces."
After saying that, Xin Xingzong threw down a piece of silver, and then wandered around the tent casually, looking for a bench to prepare to sit down.
The tent was very clean and simple. A large folding table was placed in the center, with various arrows, talismans, and documents piled up on it. Four bright glass lamps were lit in the corner of the table, and a fragrant concubine couch and folding camp bed were placed in one corner of the tent. There were two scarlet and high-quality Persian carpets beside the bed...
The place where Shizeng is located is close to the door. This is a small square wooden platform made of wooden boards - the ancients called this a couch. There were four small charcoal stoves around the couch, and the stove was burning strongly. Each stove had an iron flue on the upper room. The flue went straight to the roof and extended out of the room. The smoke was also led out of the tent along the flue, so the air in the tent had no pungent smell at all, which seemed both warm and sweet-scented - the sweet fragrance from the sauced gravy.
Xin Xingzong searched around the house, except Shizhang wore a stool under his butt, but Shizhang wore no extras, and Shizhang wore no official uniforms. To keep warm, he was wearing a jacket from Haizhou Tuanjian, and there was no sign on the clothes. Xin Xingzong mistakenly thought Shizhang was a personal soldier. He stretched out his hand several times to let Shizhang give up his seat, but Shizhang always ignored his hints when he saw Shizhang. Think about it again, he was in the sphere of influence of Haizhou Tuanjian, and he and Yang Weizhong were not enough to sit on a stool. So Xin Xingzong turned to outside the account and called his own soldiers: "Come on, look for a few wooden stakes outside."
After a while, the wooden stakes were brought. At this time, Shi Chuan was skillfully picking up a few pieces of meat with a pair of silver clips, putting them on the iron plate and roasting them repeatedly. The red iron plate made the meat grill and the aroma of the sauce was completely evaporated. Xin Xingzong Yang Weizhong couldn't help swallowing. Yang Weizhong quickly stretched his neck and looked at the stove. There were two large pots of meat placed beef, one pot seemed to be fish, and the other pot seemed to be beef and other things. In addition, Shi Chuan was filled with more than twenty bottles of bottles and jars of various sizes, each with various symbols written on it.
Shizhai was very skillful in his movements. Over the years he came to the Song Dynasty, he inevitably became infected with the elegant style of the Song people. Because he was used to doing it, his behavior was proficient and skillful. In conjunction with the demeanor of the sage and doctor, although he was dressed in white, the two generals dared not underestimate him.
"Is meat enough?" Yang Weizhong's first thought of this question.
Xin Xingzong stretched out his arms and legs and introduced himself, "We are reinforcements sent by Tong Envoy, and they are also veterans who are used to being under Tong Envoy... I heard that Shi Changqing of Haizhou is rich and pursues the ultimate enjoyment of food and clothing. We have worked hard to help reinforcements, and the chief clerk will not give us a meal, right?...Ahem, we are all big-bellied men, and the meal of lamb legs. Looking back, the chief clerk will keep us for dinner. You have to prepare more. At that time, we will not be full and the chief clerk will not be able to get up and down, so we will punish you."
Shi Chuan curled his lips and asked, "Your belly...oh, what does your appetite have to do with the face of the chief clerk?"
Xin Xingzong stretched out his arm. At this time, Shizhang turned the meat with a small silver clip. The fragrance came to his face. Xin Xingzong's hand stretched out could not help but grip, but he immediately withdrew his hand and said in a temptation: "You think, the chief clerk entertains people for dinner, but the guests are not full yet, which makes the chief clerk lose face. This shows that he is not sincere enough to treat guests. He will inevitably blame you for not having enough food, saying that you are not dedicated to doing things... Hehe, why not, let me taste your skills first, even if you eat 80% full at Lord Chunbo, I will let you go temporarily."
Yang Weizhong said, "The meat is cold, I won't eat it yet. If you bake it again, it will be hard. Look..."
Xin Xingzong immediately stretched his hand in the air and kept making a snatching action: "That's right, look, your meat is almost grilled, and then grilled into charcoal. Now, Lord Bo is not back yet. Do you want to keep the meat cold and then grill for the second time? It's really a waste of your skills. Why don't we taste it for you first?"
Shi Chuan smiled and picked up the two pieces of roasted meat, and handed them to Xin Xingzong. Xin Xingzong was not polite, and he didn't use any tools. He grabbed two pieces of meat with bare hands, his mouth was sparse, and he ate the two pieces of hot meat.
"It's delicious, it's really delicious." Xin Xingzong shouted vaguely. Yang Weizhong, who had not eaten the meat, was anxious and simply reached out and picked up a piece of meat from the charcoal board. He exchanged his hands with hot hands back and forth, and swallowed the piece of meat. Later, he licked his fingers with unfulfilled satisfaction and shouted: "Shajia has never eaten such delicious food in his life. It's a long time... What kind of meat is this? It doesn't look like beef?"
"Haizhou Little Whale Meat" Shi Chuan replied. Seeing that Sinkezong and Yang Weizhong turned their eyes to the wine pot on the stove again, he grabbed the wine pot, picked up two empty bowls, and poured a shallow bowl of wine for each of them. Yang Weizhong hurriedly reached out to get the wine bowl, but Sinkezong was faster and immediately reached out to stop him: "It's not right, the chief clerk hasn't seen it yet, so it's okay for us to eat a few pieces of meat. If we are full of wine, the chief clerk will be unhappy when he sees it."
Yang Weizhong withdrew his hand awkwardly, but unexpectedly waved his hand and said, "It's okay, the Haizhou Troupe Training Office must give two taels of soybean wine to warm up when on duty at night. It doesn't matter if you drink a little wine."
Suddenly, Xin Xingzong reached out to serve the wine bowl faster than Yang Weizhong with the speed of the Tianma Meteor Fist, and said, "In this way, I'm not polite to Sajia."
After drinking a cup of wine, Xin Xingzong stretched out and said, "The Shi Family's fine wine is indeed well-deserved."
Shi Chuan asked casually two pieces of roasted meat on the ground again: "You just said that the chief clerk is rich, who heard of this?"
While reaching out to the barbecue board to grab the meat, Xin Xingzong and Yang Weizong answered vaguely: "When the chief clerk was stranded in Tongzhou, Haizhou soldiers transported supplies one after another. Although we are from Shaanxi, there are many discussions in the camp. Our family can't help but understand the life experience of some chief clerks. According to Song Jiang, the chief clerk made good luggage and bags, and his family is the most thorough in the family. Moreover, he brewed a good wine at home, but never took out food. Only familiar Shi Junjian could get it. The wine was mainly used for personal relationships between officials. People who have drunk it said that the wine was extremely good... Well, how about another bowl?"
Shi Chuan added another bowl to the two of them and asked again: "I heard from their accents that they seemed to be Shanxi soldiers. Are the Shanxi soldiers who came to reinforce this wave? "
Xin Xingzong shook his head: "It's Changxi united soldiers."
Immediately, Xin Xingzong explained: "The Sa family has accumulated some contributions in the Battle of Qingtang. After the third general of the Southeast, Guo Shizhong was killed, the Prime Minister intends to recommend me as the third general of the Southeast. The memorial has been sent to the court, and it is about to be approved. So the Sa family leads the united troops here."
Immediately afterwards, Xin Xingzong pointed to Yang Weizhong and said, "This is the commander of the Jinxi vassal army. He was born in the Dangxiang clan and the imperial court gave it the name Yang Weizhong. Yesterday, the military agreement: Haizhou Tuanlian and the Jinxi vassal army were transferred to the left army together. Lord Yang came here to explore the way for the general of Fuzhou Town Zhe Ke. Lord Yang's troops and horses in his headquarters must also be counted on the large ships in Haizhou to transport them across the river."
Yang Weizhong bowed his fists and introduced himself. Xin Xingzong took the opportunity to grab the third piece of meat from the barbecue board without hesitation, and while sucking and eating, he asked: "What position does Guan Jun do in Haizhou Bing? Is he a fire-tou army and he is also in charge of the secretary?"
Shi Chuan grinned: "My surname is Shi Chuan Shi Changqing is himself."
Xin Xingzong tried hard to swallow the piece of meat and reached out to grab the next piece: "You have a surname, too. It seems that you are from the chief clerk. No wonder you can sit in the tent. By chance, you are also called "Changqing"...ah."
The two military heads were holding meat in their hands at this time. The meat was very hot. They were not thrown away, nor were they not thrown away. They were embarrassed and didn't know what to do. Shi Changqing was calm and held the small silver clip and urged the two of them: "Oh, sometimes I was idle and bored. I would go to make some lunch at noon and make whatever ingredients there were in the kitchen, such as roasting meat and roasting a fish. I stayed alone by the fire without saying a word, and went back to deal with business that night. When nothing happened, I suddenly felt that this was life... Eat it quickly, it would be bad if the meat was cold."
It hurts. The piece of meat in his hand is so hot that the two of them feel heartbroken. Shidai tightly, so they had to swallow the meat numbly, wipe their hands immediately on their clothes, take out the document and seal from their arms, and their bodies are straight: "Master, we are ordered to reinforce..."
As he was talking, Han Shizhong lifted the curtain and walked in. When he saw the familiar two people, he was stunned for a moment, winked and greeted them, and immediately turned around and reported to Shi Chuan: "Master Bo, there are ten naval warships returning to sail and entering the water camp."
Shi Chuan nodded and invited Han Shizhong: "Sit down and eat meat together... How about the camp?"
Han Shizhong straightened his chest and replied: "Lin, Ling, the two soldiers under the commander, have rested and are gradually taking over my defense. In addition, reinforcements are coming from the north bank. The longer the time is, our troops are getting more and more sufficient. Now, the stability of the village has been restored, and more than a thousand selected prisoners have spread out have been sent around, saying that we want to pull all the craftsmen away. The prisoners in the village are currently connecting back and forth, recognizing each other's relatives, hoping to be taken away by us."
Han Shizhong said this and sighed: "Jiangnan was so badly harmed by Fang La. He couldn't get rid of it in less than 17 or 18 years. Look, leaving his hometown was the most terrifying thing, but now the people feel that it is better to go north and make another way to make a living..."
In the past 17 or 18 years? Han Shizhong underestimated the wealth and self-repair ability of the Song Dynasty too much.
After the Fang La rebellion was put down, the court implemented a tax reduction policy. However, in the next three years, Zhu Xie's Suzhou branch was re-established, and the officials continued to exploit it. However, Zhu Xie learned a lesson and the exploitation method was slightly slowed down. Five years later, Suzhou and Hangzhou had completely recovered their vitality and peace was achieved.
The wave of selected prisoners that Shiteng took away at first were mostly shipbuilders and more outstanding craftsmen in all aspects, such as famous blacksmiths, famous textile craftsmen, jewelry craftsmen, etc. These people were single, with a total of about 3,000 people. Their families stayed for the next wave, and then these people would settle in Haizhou, Shuyang, Donghai and other counties to increase the population of these three counties and improve the population quality of the three counties. Together with their families, it is expected to migrate about 30,000 people.
The third wave of migration is basically those who know a little craft and know a little literacy. As for whether he is proficient in craftsmanship, that is something that Mr. Hai is worried about - this group of people will move to Yizhou to enrich the population there.
After these three groups of people were moved, it is expected that half of the population in the Fangla Navy camp will be moved away. Of course, they are also the most important part of the Fangla camp. As for the remaining cats and dogs, they will be thrown to Tong Guan and the local government for handling. This is already very kind. Shideng reduces half of Tong Guan's burden. I believe he doesn't care about Shideng moving some gold, silver and treasures from the "Si Xingfang" to compensate for the resettlement fees of tens of thousands of "refugees".
Thinking of this, Shi Chuan suddenly thought that some people in modern times often say that Fang La's "struggle strategy" is not good, and it seems that he is really not good. Now even the people around him don't like this "struggle method" that "smash everything". It can be imagined that his failure is inevitable. How can we brainwash the ministry just by using religion? We also need to create a further brainwashing strategy, such as making the people feel that they have smashed everything, including "taking" the people's wealth back to their homes to "smashed", which means...
Thinking of something in his mind, Shi Chuan casually greeted Han Shizhong and asked about the arrangement of the sentry in the camp. Without saying a word, Lin Chong lifted the curtain and came in. He first rushed to the tent and nodded as saying hello. He immediately reported to Shi Chuan: "Xu Ning has already landed in the staff team. Sir, will he hand over the accounts in the camp now?"
In front of so many outsiders discussing the accounts, Lin Chong was really rigid. Shi Chuan's eyes flashed and replied: "Of course... are the defense in the camp safe? Have the escaped Fang La soldiers found out the ownership?"
Lin Chong had a strange expression on his face, as if there was something difficult to say. After a moment, seeing everyone in the tent staring at him, Lin Chong swallowed and replied: "The escaped general is Shi Bao. It is said that he is also from Haizhou. He once worked under the command of the envoys from four directions in Manichaeism and served as the commander of the navy in Fang La's army. At the beginning, the Sixingfang felt that our army was small and wanted to monopolize the contribution of destroying Haizhou, so he left him in the camp and went to fight alone.
Later, when the defeated army returned to the camp, Shi Bao asked about the situation of the battle, he immediately said: 'It turns out that the person who came was Shi Dalang, and everyone in Haizhou knew that Shi Dalang's fist could not be blocked. Now, he can only tell Fang Qifo.' Then he packed his luggage and fled. At that time, some people followed Shi Bao, and some did not believe in Shi Bao and wanted to go to the village to resist. It is said that when our army attacked the village, a Fang La army general led the army to resist on the wall, but our army killed him in the first round of artillery fire. Therefore, Fang La army had no intention of resisting anymore."
When Lin Chong said this, his eyes were staring at Shi Chuan. Shi Chuan laughed hoarsely after hearing this: "Shi Bao, Shi Tou is a treasure - I know this person, a person from Donghai County. He had sold me gems for me before, but later he probably thought it was cheaper, thinking that I was robbing by fire, and since then he hated me. Later, he followed a messenger named Fang, but unfortunately this "Ju Ren Fang" provoked me and was destroyed by me, which forced him to go far and hide..."
In "Water Margin", this Shi Bao is an amazing figure. He used to use a treasure sword, called the Wind-Splitting Sword, which can cut copper and cut iron, cover three layers of armor, and pass by like splitting the wind. He also used to use a meteor hammer to hit every shot and ride a melon yellow horse. In "Water Margin", Shi Bao fought against Guan Sheng (Guan must win) for twenty rounds before suddenly returning to the horse. Guan Sheng immediately stopped the horse and returned to the formation. Song Jiang was puzzled. Guan Sheng said: "Shi Bao sword technique is not inferior to Guan Sheng. Although he will return to the horse, he will definitely have a plan."
The general who can inherit the arrogant sword of the martial saint Guan Sheng, is definitely a rare person in "Water Margin" in "Water Margin" and beat Suo Chao, one of the eight cavalrymen, with a hammer and hammer. He lost to Lu Fang and Guo Sheng in fifty rounds - this seems to be a stain on Shi Bao, but it is not true. Although Lu Fang is among the Earthly Demon Stars, his martial arts skills are not weak, nicknamed Xiao Wenhou, comparable to Lu Bu. In Yu Wanchun's book "The Arrogant of the Bandits", Lu Fang is also a character who can wrestle the arm of those first-class masters. Shi Bao's sword, fighting against Lu Fang and Guo Sheng, did not leak any of them, and it was not until Zhu Tong had a gun that was defeated.
Such a heroic character, hearing the name "Shi Chuan" is enough to make people proud - unfortunately, the plot of the novel is not accurate. In "Water Marshal", Shi Bao is Fang La's "Shi Bao, the Marshal of the Nanli General". Among them, the official position of Marshal did not exist in the Song Dynasty, it was an official title in the Ming Dynasty. In addition, Fang La created the "family world". All the second generation of officials have the surname Fang, and people with other surnames are just guys who are instigated to "spend their heads and blood". Shi Bao was awarded a free official because he followed the Fang clan, which is similar to the role of modern soy sauce. And in Fang La's army, the real first general was Fang Qi Buddha, and only Fang Qi Buddha
"How far is Xiuzhou from here?" Shi Chuan asked: "How long has it been before Shi Bao found Fang Qi Buddha?"
Without waiting for Lin Chong to answer, Shi Chuan immediately calculated: "Our warships will be taken over the road to the staff team, and most of them will go to Tongzhou. After unloading and loading 'materials' in Tongzhou, they will hire Tongzhou merchant ships to transport gunpowder and other combat preparation materials to return to the flight... In this way, the large group of people will take at least two days to rush back. Before that, our army that exhausted gunpowder has no attack or defense capabilities at all. In two days or two days, how many people can the north bank of the river cross? Can we count on the north bank of the river?"
